And why is this just happening now?

Space: the final frontier1. A place where mankind has been maintaining a small outpost for quite a few years now, most recently in the International Space Station.

But what’s the point of having an outpost like the ISS in orbit if they can’t really enjoy the view?

Good job that they finally got round to sorting that

See, it’s views like that that make the $100,000,000,000 price tag seem almost reasonable.
